Another small step as Sceaux bids to maintain unbeaten record

Willie Mullins is happy to take small steps with Un De Sceaux as he attempts to maintain his unbeaten record in the Red Mill Trial Hurdle at Gowran Park today.

The six-year-old burst on to the scene at the end of last season, beating some useful rivals hollow at the Punchestown Festival.

Un De Sceaux has looked extremely impressive in two races this year, but his critics point to the fact that he only defeated two runners at Thurles and at Navan.
